I cant say how helpful lynn has been. My son would freeze in English language mocks with fear. Lynn has helped to prepare him for his exams, gain confidence in his work and himself. He lost all fear and came out of his exam with a big smile. My son is very shy but Lynn made him feel comfortable and relaxed during his lessons. I cannot recommend Lynn enough.

Phoebe is a conscientious, kind and knowledgeable tutor. My son has gained confidence in English, and looks forward to lessons, which says it all! Couldn’t recommend highly enough.

Marguerite provided excellent support in my daughter's A-Level English Literature preparation, particularly in structuring exam responses and how to approach the unseen texts. I would highly recommend Marguerite.

Joanna has been tutoring my son for the past months and we couldn't be happier with the progress he's made. She's a fully qualified teacher with extensive classroom experience and this really shines through in the way she teaches. In a short amount of time, Joanna has helped my son grow confidence and made real progress in preparing for his English GCSE. Thanks to her support my son achieved a fantic grade in his English speaking exam. Joanna has a lovely way of explaining clearly and making even the trickiest topic feel manageable. She takes the time to understand how my son learns best and tailors her lessons to suit his needs. She's not only knowledgeable and thorough but also kind, patient and encouraging. We also really value the thoughtful feedback she gives after each lesson. This is very helpful as we can track his progress. I highly recommend Joanna to anyone looking for a highly skilled, supportive English teacher.

We are very grateful to John for tutoring our son for his GCSE exams in English and Computer Science. His experience as an OCR examiner in English was particularly valuable as he was able to efficiently teach areas that were not adequately covered in school, raising my son’s mock grades in literature from 5 to 8. He explained computer science concepts really clearly. He developed a great rapport with my son, who valued his feedback and looked forward to his lessons.

Eloise is Really helpful, flexible and knowledgeable. So grateful to her for supporting my son. Thank you so much xx

Rebecca has been an excellent English tutor to our 9 year old during a very difficult time when he needed to be homeschooled. She catered her lessons around subjects our little one found interesting and enjoyed, and she managed to keep him much more engaged with his schoolwork than we were able to do on our own. Rebecca provided very detailed and helpful verbal and written feedback after lessons and helped us identify his strengths and weaknesses so that we knew what to focus on. We have seen improvement with his writing ability and spellings, and it has been great to see him more engaged with a subject he doesn't like very much! We have been very happy with Rebecca's work and we would highly recommend her as a tutor. Thanks for all your help Rebecca!
